they've agreed to raise the debt ceiling, as far as we know. this would be for three months, and then they would take it from there. but this gives everybody some breathing room and has to be taken as good news today. >> and now we see live the vice president's sons and the vice president's daughter taking their seat as the families of the president and the vice president are announced here on the west front of the u.s. capitol. we'll be expecting to see the first family again here shortly. and, of course, the crowds up and down the national mall, here to witness american history for themselves. they have a much easier day of it today than they did in 2009. in 2009 when the president took the oath, it was 28 degrees, but now it's about 39 degrees in washington and it is cloudy but a very beautiful day here, a perfect day for the inauguration of the president. >> looking at those pictures, scott, it's hard to believe that this crowd is only about a half, or maybe not even that much, of the size of the crowd that was here in 2008. it was just an
